So Elizabeth teleported herself into our world and stayed in Russia as a cosplayer. Then when she heard there's a contest for portraying her, she joined and obviously won. The only person who can truly beat you is yourself.
I know I'm 5 years late, but that last sentence is not always true. Charlie Chaplin once entered a Chaplin look-alike contest and he ended up on 20th place. Even other people are better at being you than you are
I could not agree more, I fell in love with this game, the story, the characters, the music. This is the best game I have ever played. It feels even better knowing that I followed the development of this game year ahead of its release.
Elizabeth has the best AI mechanics out of every game that I've played. She doesn't feel tethered to you but rather has a mind of her own. She becomes so much more than just a supporting character.
Her being missing in part of the game after booker has her as a companion really adds to that fact. There is no infinite without her as your companion!
After all these years, for me, this is still the gold standard of how to bring an NPC to life to the point where you can't even tell it's not a real person. Don't think I've seen anything remotely close to this in any other game. It is as if everyone did their job flawlessly somehow.
Kens writing is amazing, Elizabeth always felt like a real person fighting by my side, and I could always tell when she wasn't happy, or when she was in a bad mood, it was a great experience. I hope the other guys making the new bioshock care as much as irrational/ghost story do 🙏🤙
Incredible guys ! Elisabeth was so refined, fun and helpful, when most compagnons AIs are robotic, clunky and more of a hassle and a form of help. Your work with Infinite is just breathtaking ! I can’t wait for JUDAS ❤️❤️❤️ You guys are the best !
you may not hear this often but THANK YOU! i know you have all put your hearts and souls into making this game and i really appreciate it. Many companies dont do that:) so thank you for making for what im sure will be one of the best games i've played in my life
Dear Irrational Games, stop making this look so damn good. My birthday is too close to when this game comes out, and I doubt I'm going to get it right away.
I definitely became attached to Elizabeth throughout the game, and when that ending came, I felt so humbled, no struggle or want from her... Only her happiness....
Agreed, the only other character I've been this emotionally attached to was Lucien Lachance from TES IV: Oblivion. Also, God bless your family, we need more people like you guys on the planet
From what I've gathered, a lot of her lines during the game come from a spontaneous collaborative effort between Ken Levine and Courtnee Draper during the recording sessions. Other than that I believe that Ken Levine was the major creative director/writer behind the character, but I can't be sure. None of the sources I could find mentioned a writer specifically for Elizabeth.
OMG! I SOO tried not to comment on Irrational's page like some stammering fanboy but, this game is absolutely AMAZING!!! Love you Ken, you guys are infinitely inspiring. Greatest Developer Ever? You got my vote.
I would like to give thanks to the people in this vid, they did a fantastic job with Elizabeth, and I can confirm on my account at least that you do get connected to her in the game, can tell when she is absent from battle, and find yourself looking at her in situations to see what she may take on it. Well Done team, Great game, Great character.
Ah, I appreciate the info, I'll look it up. More importantly than his voice, maybe his character, his past and all that, unless they reveal those things in the game as we progress.
I love this. I love getting connected to characters it makes the game that much better. Which is why i love irrational and All that that you guys do. Please keep up the good work! :D
i felt like elizabeth was more than a character. i felt as i watched the gameplay that she was much more. she and booker became apart of my life and im beyond impressed at how amazing her as a videogame character was.
3:45 _This._ I played through Mirror's Edge from start to finish the same day I finished Bioshock Infinite. A majority of the in-game cutscenes in Mirror's Edge were motion-captured in a way that was distracting and took a bit of the immersion out of it. Compared to Infinite's cutscenes and its AI relation to the level environment really made you feel a part of the universe.
I second that, the most impressive AI I've ever seen. Also she wins best side kick ever. Can't remember how many times she found exactly what I needed in fights.
seems like the voice actress did a wonderful job. I am very excited to see how the game unfolds regarding elizabeth... Irrational seems to be pushing her very very hard - look at how little theyve talked about any other character (even Booker!) in comparison.
It's cool that it takes four woman to make one almost like a trinity. The woman who does the voice, the woman who does the thinking, the woman who does the body motion and the woman who does the face.
Can't wait for the future of motion-capture tech, where they have a virtual world for the actors to actually see while they move. They need to see what's going on around them, to be able to accurately move.
Elizabeth makes Bioshock, she's so detail'd, from coughing around cig smoke to asking me if I'm ok because I'm taking to long in the bathroom. No other AI has been made so detailed. Good job. /clap
I think I am not the only one who started feeling for Elizabeth, I allmost miss the company of Elizabeth during other games 0_o Best designed additional character ever, how they managed to feel so much for just an NPC who hops around basicly is so amazing.
The last few seconds remind me of the Hero's dog in Fable 2: happy to be around you, helps you in situations, fights at your side and then dies at the end of the game. :'(
My little family are gamers. My husband, son and I love our games. Bioshock is one of our family favorites. Great memories playing it non-stop because we couldn't wait to see the story develop. Bioshock Infinite was worth the wait. I have not been emotionally attached to a character like Elizabeth since I played Final Fantasy. I can use dramatic adjectives to describe how incredible this game is but you will not know until you play it. Buy it now! You will enjoy it from beginning to end.
The actor is Troy Baker, who is one of the most prolific v.o. actors in gaming. They've done many interviews with him. They're concentrating on Elizabeth because you actually see her and the weak links in most games are NPCs. This might not be the case with this game. She's also beautiful.
You are good people and you are will be in paradise. I'm really was happy when i'm playing in this game, just incredible! Love this game and your studio. Thank for so unexpected ending.
What I love about Irrational Games is that we will never have a another game that would feel like BioShock or BioShock Infinite the next BioShock game will feel very different and would feel like something new
Elizabeth is the most lovable gaming character ever created, the voice actor did an amazing job u just love her simply by listening to her voice And just to think she gets murdered by Frank Fontaine just like that 😐, I replayed Bioshock 1 just to kill that SOB another time in revenge for Lizzy
But with all the troubles and delays it's a miracle that the game is still coming out, lol. Maybe they will add multi player later on i can hope because I do love playing against people a lot.
The big importance of Alyx in Half Life 2 has definitely shaped Elizabeth for Bioshock Infinite, I really can't wait to adventure with a smart character next to me again.
Are you kidding, I lost count of how many times I would have died without her help in the game. Besides, I cared for her since I saw her, it wasn't fair what those guys were doing to her in the statue. Not to mention that before "maturing", as you say, she was adorable. Best character in the game for me, along with Songbird and the Lutece twins.
You can get Ken Levine's hoodie from the Irrational Games website store Also at any Gatherer's Garden, Gene Bank, U-Invent, Circus of Values or Armo Bandito!
Never played an escort mission before where I feel the one being escorted. I think Irrational really hit a homerun with Liz. This game is a joy to play.
I admit it, I fall in "Love" with her. She is very well accomplished. She is a essential part of the feelings the game transmits. So, now, I will go find my real Elizabeth :D
He seems like a character easy to relate to, although I'm still having doubts. Nevertheless, I won't miss out on such a huge title, only a week left...
While I think this is a nice commentary is all fine and dandy (for a kick ass game by the way) the real thing that took my attention was this..... 5:03-5:24 What is that camera called that the guy is holding? What program is he using? Where can I buy something like that? This is what I want to know!
It's the only FPS I know that requires a basic understanding of some elements of quantum mechanics. Because of that, this game is amazing (PS, quantum mechanics basically describes how the universe works on a physics level of science)
That's good and all since she plays a major role in the game, but how about Booker? We gonna see his voice actor or anything related to him? I feel like a I do not know my player.
Elizabeth passing coins, health-kit, ammo, and their private conversations when being idle are one the finest executions in the game. Love it.
btw elizabeth is the only AI who never get the comment " you stupid AI"....
So Elizabeth teleported herself into our world and stayed in Russia as a cosplayer. Then when she heard there's a contest for portraying her, she joined and obviously won. The only person who can truly beat you is yourself.

Elizabeth is awesome, I love her. In my opinion, she's one of the most important videogame characters in history.

Ken Levine is the Davinci of modern games. Sad to see irrational games lay off most of it's staff but excited to see what he does next
Ken is love Ken is life
increditoaster
Well said.
That's right
As an old nerd and dad, thank you for Elizabeth; my daughter will love watching me play through this one.
Incredible guys !
Elisabeth was so refined, fun and helpful, when most compagnons AIs are robotic, clunky and more of a hassle and a form of help.
Your work with Infinite is just breathtaking !
I can’t wait for JUDAS ❤️❤️❤️
You guys are the best !

"I'm literally drenched in sweat because my body is working so hard"
No, you're drenched in sweat because your wearing a scarf indoors ;)
Dear Irrational Games, stop making this look so damn good. My birthday is too close to when this game comes out, and I doubt I'm going to get it right away.
I definitely became attached to Elizabeth throughout the game, and when that ending came, I felt so humbled, no struggle or want from her... Only her happiness....
wait until you see the ending of burial at the sea episode 2... i never feel so sad before that ending :(
Its hard playing a fps without elizabeth helping me out
Agreed, the only other character I've been this emotionally attached to was Lucien Lachance from TES IV: Oblivion. Also, God bless your family, we need more people like you guys on the planet

Well Done team, Great game, Great character.
This is the video that needs to become famous. This was an interesting watch.
Ah, I appreciate the info, I'll look it up. More importantly than his voice, maybe his character, his past and all that, unless they reveal those things in the game as we progress.
I love this. I love getting connected to characters it makes the game that much better. Which is why i love irrational and All that that you guys do. Please keep up the good work! :D
We need an elizabeth follower mod on skyrim with the Courtnee Draper voicing her.
i felt like elizabeth was more than a character. i felt as i watched the gameplay that she was much more. she and booker became apart of my life and im beyond impressed at how amazing her as a videogame character was.
I'm clad you posted this, and there i was just about to go on the wiki intil you put this up. Thank You :)
Wow Bioshock 2 you just got a voice and some fuzzy images. Excellent. I am so glad I preorded.
3:45 _This._
I played through Mirror's Edge from start to finish the same day I finished Bioshock Infinite.

Compared to Infinite's cutscenes and its AI relation to the level environment really made you feel a part of the universe.
When I finished Infinite, I just didn't know what to do for 3 days, even though I has 5 games to complete.
I love how there are a lot of women on this team in creating this character and the game. Bravo.
I second that, the most impressive AI I've ever seen. Also she wins best side kick ever. Can't remember how many times she found exactly what I needed in fights.
Fantastic voice acting and mo-cap acting.
Wow, I really like your second idea :D
Sounds like it would be a great game.
My Lord! Anna Moleva cosplayed the Awesome Elizabeth 'n' now she in the game trailer. Nice work, Anna :)
seems like the voice actress did a wonderful job. I am very excited to see how the game unfolds regarding elizabeth... Irrational seems to be pushing her very very hard - look at how little theyve talked about any other character (even Booker!) in comparison.

Thanks for this master piece, Mr. Levine.
BEST. GAME. EVER.
not really
@@香香鸭 yes really.
@@rodriga1985 the first bioshock?
Can't wait for the future of motion-capture tech, where they have a virtual world for the actors to actually see while they move. They need to see what's going on around them, to be able to accurately move.
I met Courtnee and Heather last night at the LA midnight launch event. They were super cool. Can't wait to play the game after work tonight!!
I felt very scared when she was not with me.
And when she was, I kept looking behind me to make sure she's still following.
I think she's absolutely astonishing beautiful. Damn good game, Irrational Games!
Elizabeth makes Bioshock, she's so detail'd, from coughing around cig smoke to asking me if I'm ok because I'm taking to long in the bathroom. No other AI has been made so detailed. Good job. /clap
Courtnee is really amazing. Perfect casting.
I think I am not the only one who started feeling for Elizabeth, I allmost miss the company of Elizabeth during other games 0_o
Best designed additional character ever, how they managed to feel so much for just an NPC who hops around basicly is so amazing.
i think the woman voiceacting elizabeth is one of the best voice actors out there
The last few seconds remind me of the Hero's dog in Fable 2: happy to be around you, helps you in situations, fights at your side and then dies at the end of the game. :'(
Loved the way the built up the relationship between booker and elizabeth; made the ending mean so much /more/...

2 years of waiting is worth it
Jeez, I think Elizabeth is already one of the most loved video game characters out there.
gotta love games/movies/books that have an ending that is entirely up to your interpretation
Yeh, you shouldn't miss out on any of the story, but the first 2 are defiantly worth the play .
Irrational, you are the gods of video games
I've idolized and been fascinated by characters before but I've never emotional attached to one until I met Liz.
Get a Life

thanks 2 all who were involved into this game. I love this game
This is very revolutionary, how far we've come it the digital industry
The details of the character made me love her 15 minutes after you play accompanied by her.
I need Ken`s jacket and shirt.
Somebody please convince me that there is no possibility of this happening, just so I can feel sad all over again if it does.
its crazy how it took different people to create 1 video game character plus the developers!
well I'm so glad at how much time they put into Elisabeth, you know its a well developed character when its based of 4 people!
I won't be able to sleep for the next few days while thinking of this game. Can't wait!
:)
is it just me or is this week the longest week of my life?!!?
Elizabeth is the most lovable gaming character ever created, the voice actor did an amazing job u just love her simply by listening to her voice
And just to think she gets murdered by Frank Fontaine just like that 😐, I replayed Bioshock 1 just to kill that SOB another time in revenge for Lizzy
But with all the troubles and delays it's a miracle that the game is still coming out, lol. Maybe they will add multi player later on i can hope because I do love playing against people a lot.
Elizabeth is the best in game companion I ever had
Given that they delayed it from February to March specifically to do more bug testing on it, I'm pretty confident.
Honestly, I see a connection like that to almost all FPS games.
Totally agree with you, she is one of the most beautiful characters in all the games :D
Thanks for the heads up!
The big importance of Alyx in Half Life 2 has definitely shaped Elizabeth for Bioshock Infinite, I really can't wait to adventure with a smart character next to me again.
I couldn't be more excited for this game.
woow, So Elizabeth has a Russian face hahah :D
con razon me gusto tanto jajaja
Jebediah Kerman its an Honor to meet you!
When I listen to her talk, I think of Elizabeth
don't worry,i've not even play the game yet and i'm already in love with her
Only six more days. I CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS GAME!
Are you kidding, I lost count of how many times I would have died without her help in the game. Besides, I cared for her since I saw her, it wasn't fair what those guys were doing to her in the statue. Not to mention that before "maturing", as you say, she was adorable. Best character in the game for me, along with Songbird and the Lutece twins.
It's kind of weird, a game I've been waiting for since 2010, and it's going to be out in less than a week. It's really strange to think of
You can get Ken Levine's hoodie from the Irrational Games website store
Also at any Gatherer's Garden, Gene Bank, U-Invent, Circus of Values or Armo Bandito!
I can't wait to rescue Liz next week. She already is pulling on my heartstrings.
Never played an escort mission before where I feel the one being escorted. I think Irrational really hit a homerun with Liz. This game is a joy to play.
I admit it, I fall in "Love" with her. She is very well accomplished. She is a essential part of the feelings the game transmits. So, now, I will go find my real Elizabeth :D
The best game ever. Amazing story line especially ending.
Your comment amuses me immensely, good show sir.

While I think this is a nice commentary is all fine and dandy (for a kick ass game by the way) the real thing that took my attention was this.....
5:03-5:24
What is that camera called that the guy is holding? What program is he using? Where can I buy something like that?
This is what I want to know!
STILL WAITING FOR IT!
It's the only FPS I know that requires a basic understanding of some elements of quantum mechanics. Because of that, this game is amazing
(PS, quantum mechanics basically describes how the universe works on a physics level of science)
That's good and all since she plays a major role in the game, but how about Booker? We gonna see his voice actor or anything related to him? I feel like a I do not know my player.
Bioshock Infinite is one of the best games ever
exactly she feels so real
I'm glad I watched this; Courtney comes across a lot better in this than she did in the credits!
How can people dislike this i don't get it.
A little bit of Miyazaki's "ma" or emptiness principle put into practice in a video game with a compelling story. Love it.
This video needs more Drew Holmes
